Continuing with its momentum in completing El Rodeo Elementary School and following its announcement that the Grand Front Lawn, Performing Arts Wing with Theaters, Tennis Courts and Upper Athletic Field will be complete in the summer of 2025, Beverly Hills Unified School District (BHUSD) Board of Education approved the contract for the start of construction for the Athletic Pavilion at Beverly Hills High School (BHHS) with Swinterton Builders. The pavilion will be completed in the summer of 2027.
The construction of the new athletic building at BHHS has been in the planning process for many years, and it will include the construction of a new two-story, approximately 45,000-square-foot gymnasium building—including combination basketball and volleyball courts, bleachers, weight training facilities, locker and team rooms, and various other athletic spaces—a separate 25-yard, 10-lane competition outdoor swimming pool—including a detached storage and pool equipment building, and retaining walls. The new building will replace the current Konheim Athletic Building and will also bear the Konheim Family name. Following completion of the new building, the existing Konheim Athletic Building will be demolished. The new facilities will complement the existing recently refurbished Swim Gym.
